Entry
EC 2.1.1.385                Enzyme                                 
Name
[methyl-Co(III) methoxylated-aromatic-compound-specific corrinoid protein]---tetrahydrofolate methyltransferase;
mtvA (gene name)
Class
Transferases;
Transferring one-carbon groups;
Methyltransferases
Sysname
[methylated methoxylated-aromatic-compound-specific corrinoid protein]:tetrahydrofolaten methyltransferase
Reaction(IUBMB)
a [methyl-Co(III) methoxylated-aromatic-compound-specific corrinoid protein] + tetrahydrofolate = N5-methyltetrahydrofolate + a [Co(I) methoxylated-aromatic-compound-specific corrinoid protein] [RN:R02289]
Reaction(KEGG)
R02289
Substrate
[methyl-Co(III) methoxylated-aromatic-compound-specific corrinoid protein];
tetrahydrofolate [CPD:C00101]
Product
N5-methyltetrahydrofolate;
[Co(I) methoxylated-aromatic-compound-specific corrinoid protein]
Comment
The enzyme, found in acetogenic bacteria, participates in a pathway for the degradation of methoxylated aromatic compounds (methoxydotrophic growth). The enzyme catalyses the transfer of a methyl group bound to the cobalt cofactor of a dedicated corrinoid protein (MtvC) to tetrahydrofolate. cf. EC 2.1.1.384, [methyl-Co(III) methoxylated-aromatic-compound-specific corrinoid protein]---tetrahydromethanopterin methyltransferase.
